Within OpenAI's specialized models: DALL-E performs text-to-image generation, Sora performs text-to-video generation, and Whisper performs speech-to-text recognition (ASR), not speech synthesis.

Summary

This pins down exactly what each of OpenAI's specialized models does, so the system can route tasks correctly: DALL-E makes still images from text, Sora makes videos from text, and Whisper transcribes spoken audio into written text rather than generating new speech. Getting these roles straight matters because swapping them (like asking Whisper to produce audio) would lead to dead-end requests or wrong outputs.
